Default Switch Panel

My switch panel on my 84 has been cut-up and altered. I'd like to replace it with the same material Seacraft uses these days on their new boats. I looked at it real close and it appears to be a formica type laminate matrerial. The material I speak of has an aluminum finish and repeating circular patterns. Does anyone have a source for this material?

I am looking to replace my switch panel as well. My panel is 3.5" x 23" and has 8 breaker switch cut outs with the SC Logo on the right side of the panel.

I believe you have the same type of panel. Have you seen the type of work this company puts out? The price seems OK if the quality is there.

I tracked down the company that makes the switch panel for Seacraft. Didn't price the whole panel, but did get a price for a replacement front for a current model - $45. I was hoping they bought the material in bulk, but it appears they have to machine each panel for the effect, thus the high price for a little sliver of formica. Can you give me more details on the panel you're having made.

I have the same panel and see the exact size from my earlier message. I would also be interested in replacing the plexiglass drip guard just above the switch panel as well. If they need me to send the old panels just let me know. The group discount sounds like a good idea to me.
